behind of yesterday’s tiktok ⭐️ 🐰 the ‘tree’ challenge... that i did yesterday…i did it because i wanted to 🐰 as soon i saw it, i was like “i need to do this” it’s so funny 🐰 that’s actually not what i was going to film that day, it was supposed to be a sexy challenge but i’m not really good at those kind of challenges where you have to be like “look at my sexiness”, even with performances i prefer doing something that’s more light so i told them that there was something else i wanted to do instead of that one and they asked me what i wanted to do so i showed them the ‘tree’ challenge and said that that’s what i wanted to do 🐰 we actually save the ones that we’d like to do and bring it with us so we can show it to them 🐰 when i showed it to them, they loved it and were like the “let’s do this! let’s do it right away!” 🐰 i wasn’t going to film a challenge that day so it was a very sudden filming and i was wearing sandals…something like slippers with nothing covering my heels so they kept coming off my feet when i was doing the step 🐰 i think i filmed it about 5 times, i filmed it many times 🐰 “you should’ve done the sexy one” i mean…i can do it if i have to but i’m not good at it…doing something sexy on stage is fine but being like “wow look at me 😏” is not something i particularly like either 🐰 i like doing light performances and i think that’s what suits me as well 🐰 each person has something that suits them 🐰 yeonjun hyung & beomgyu are excessively coy when they’re on stage and they’re people that suit that kind of thing but i feel like i’m not someone that suits it 🐰 i think i suit light concepts better 🐰 i don’t know about suiting because everyone will have a different opinion but i personally like that better!show more

🔥🚨BREAKING NEWS: Iconic rapper Nicki Minaj just officially endorsed... President Trump after publicly thanking him on X for defending the Christians that are facing genocide in Nigeria. Minaj: “Reading this made me feel a deep sense of gratitude. We live in a country where we can freely worship God. No group should ever be persecuted for practicing their religion. We don’t have to share the same beliefs in order for us to respect each other. Numerous countries all around the world are being affected by this horror & it’s dangerous to pretend we don’t notice. Thank you to The President & his team for taking this seriously. God bless every persecuted Christian. Let’s remember to lift them up in prayer.”show more

This is for the person who struggles with their... body image. You are not alone. All the time, I wish I had even a tiny bit of consistent confidence in my body. You know what I’ve realized? I can love myself no matter what my body looks like. I can trust myself no matter my size. I can care for myself no matter what other people think of me. Can I say how hard that is when people tear me down in comments or messages? To still love myself regardless of how I’m treated? That’s a mission. It’s actually the mission we’re all on. My body can be sacred to me even if I’m self-conscious about it. Sometimes I wear something so beautiful that it reminds me that I’m beautiful too… Because what’s on the inside is what will radiate to the outside. Every day, I focus on being kind or sharing a helping hand. My body is a vessel for what I believe to be true about the world and that’s that everyone can make a difference- big or small. In a world of unfortunate circumstances- here’s a reminder: we are not defined by our circumstances but by our courage to redefine our circumstances. Sending you love today 💕 if you’re struggling, know you are not aloneshow more

On my journey in search of shelter for myself... and my family, I caught sight of an exhausted, desperate cat, pleading in the language of silence for a morsel to ease her hunger. Her eyes were broken, and her trembling body spoke of long days of deprivation. She had found no one to feed her, no one to show her kindness. I stood helpless before her. I didn’t know what to do, and I wept... I wept for myself, and for her. For here, hunger does not distinguish between human or animal, young or old, living or lifeless. Everyone groans under the weight of massacres, deprivation, and fear. We have all become equal in suffering... We are being annihilated, starved, displaced, buried alive under the silence of the world. We will plead to God... We will plead to Him about our oppression, our hunger, our spilled blood, and our souls suspended between heaven and earth. We will cry out against those who caused our tragedy, those who stole our homes, our safety, and our children’s dreams. Forgive me, my little cat... Forgive me for not being able to give you anything. I too am hungry, displaced, lost in a land that shows no mercy.😭💔show more

I need to explain something to those followers that... don't get my recent X feed. No altcoin made me $2.5 million in 3 weeks. $RAT did. That's why I focus on it. Bitcoin remains important and I will cover it more in the future. However, right now, there is nothing interesting about BTC moving up and down around 100k. On the other hand, RAT will soon be listed on 8 centralized exchanges. Do you know what that means for a token with a $10 mil market cap? If you don't, that's fine. The TLDR is this. RAT will pump. Simple as that. 10x or maybe 100x. We will find out. This is more exciting than watching ETH crash 20% the other day. Or seeing Solana drop under $200 after I told everyone to sell it at $260. I lost all interest in altcoins. My only altcoin focus is MY OWN TOKEN. The one my community and I love. Because it is OURS! It's not owned by some VC. It's owned by OUR community. Do you understand what I am writing here? Believe in something! RAT Escape is that for us. If you can't see the alpha in this post. I can't help you.show more

Universities and High Schools have not moved rapidly enough... to guide students to have skills for the next decade. THEY HAVE FAILED. It is a massive crisis that can be averted by understanding what AI and Robotics will bring about. Solutions are knowing how to use these tools and new industries that will rise. But this situation is also on ALL OF US. No “job” is safe from founder to entry level in most industries. You and I, by what we do, will be “replaced” ultimately. What to do? AI and Robotics are tools, the next decade is owned by those who know how to use them expertly, but this is also temporary. We have to understand that what we do for “work” will change giving ultimately a greater value to those that are: Creative Flexible Always learning Willing to be wrong Love being human Love being alive Know history Covet wisdom Knowing all tech has downsides Building strong family and friends Realize many institutions have failed The first four are required for you to be able to live through this period with your sanity intact. The rest will allow you to thrive. There are no true careers at this point anymore. There are advocation and vocations which will either earn you money or give life meaning. We will learn that we are not “what we do”, just like we knew for 99% of human existence. Let that sink in. — You and I are far, far ahead of knowing this and we can do two things: 1) Laugh at the “clueless” 2) Help people understand with grace Go to Reddit if you are 1, in fact don’t follow me because you will not like this next decade and what I post. You are 2 and thank you. Even if you and I have not solved this issue, we can help people understand what is ahead and with determination and creativity bound together to solve it locally. Or human family has done this millions of times. The evidence is: you are here. The Neo Luddite movement has not even begun and it will potentially rip apart society even more than all the fashionable moment in the recent past has. These Luddites will have a good point with the wrong answers cooked up by dying academics that cling to labels, “virtues” and victim hood. It will be readymade for some governments to enter in as “big daddy” to “help us”. You will not like what they do, but you will only know when it is too late. It will include YOU “volunteering” to “leave” by 60, to “help out” CanadaPod style. “Brian, I’m 24 what do I do?”. I hope to do much more here to help. But I do know this: 1) Learn a trade or vocation because it’s valuable. It may also be free to low cost if you do it right. 2) Learn everything you can about USING AI and TRAINING YOUR AI. Your expertise will be in the top 1% for a decade. But not forever. 3) Understand Bitcoin and how it will rise while other things sink. This is a short list for now. We will know more moving forward. When you see videos like this posted below, know one thing: Many of these folks had no real family of mental and physical support. Maybe no parent or one parent. Maybe only a broke system to prepare them for—nothing. This was not their doing. Now it is not your “job” to help them, it is your survival to help them if that is what you need. See some day after the dust settles these 20 year olds will be 40 year olds and running YOUR world. And at some point you may need them more than you think you do. You will need them, as they need you now. THIS IS WHAT PAST WISDOM KNEW. The elders of the past never found the need to piss on the youth and hope for the best. THE YOUTH ARE OUR BEST, let us all find ways to change it, even if every aspect of “the system” wants us to berate them into the ground.show more

I had a visitor today who seemingly was disappointed... in my egg pricing. You can find $3-$5 eggs per dozen at grocery stores. Styrofoam cartons, caged chickens or the one company that really bothers me but it is what it is. I won’t name them. Our chickens are fed a diet of grains from a mill that I now have in my possession a certificate of their good standing with organic standards. This means we do pay them more for that grain that would be found in a farm that sources gmo grains. I charge $6/dozen and have since we started here because my costs have not changed for the grain inputs. Despite growing the flock to 100+, buying infrastructure via fences, running gear, automatic coop doors and much more. $6 per dozen. I am not undercutting my family anymore. To raise this quality of meat, eggs and produce, it has to be justified to the time spent in the fields, buying feed by the tonnage and generally building a business that can support these types of investments. I don’t like losing a customer - but I have to be able to look my wife and children in the eye and justify what we’re doing.show more

🐈🥰🫂🇵🇸It was wonderful to read your words and feel... you celebrate with us, my dear friends. While some strikes continued to fall around us, the army has now begun to withdraw, and 🇵🇸🌿#Gaza City is taking a big sigh of relief. There are many thousands of us still here, and we knew our days were limited if change did not happen. Just this week there were tanks in our streets, and now there are only birds in the sky and peace on the ground. It is a miracle to be alive, my dear friends. Thank you and thank you again, for standing by us and always showing me and my family and my friends your unconditional love and support. I hope that soon aid will be able to flood into the area, and we will be able to return to helping people and the cats and the dogs again. I forgot to mention this yesterday, but we have a new cat living in our shelter. He is a very gentle and loving boy, and he turned up in my house where my cousin Mo took him to the shelter to be safe. I don't know if he belongs to someone, so we will keep him safe and feed him while we ask around to see if he belongs to someone. His addition to our shelter has made my children very happy, and I would be grateful for your support to buy him and the other cats more food. Hopefully, soon there will be real pet food in Gaza again! I pray for better days and conditions, my friends. Thank you for reading my update and always being so wonderful. You are true friends and I am grateful for you all.. 🫂 My Family Survival Fund + Looking after the Cats 🐾🐈🥺🫂 Our Cruelty Free Kitchen 🫂🙏🇵🇸 Our Water Project 💧🙏show more

[Joong TIKTOK repost ] 💍10 things couples should do... for each other every day (that many people overlook) 1. Give each other some space,there's no need to talk 24/7. Sometimes a little distance makes you miss each other more. 2. If you know the other person is in a bad mood, don’t take it personally. On days when they’re quiet, just say, “I’m here for you.” That’s enough. 3. Accept their flaws without trying to change everything about them. No one is perfect, including ourselves 4. Laugh together over silly things. A good relationship doesn’t always have to be serious. 5. Be brave enough to say “I miss you” first. You don’t always have to wait for the other person to start. 6. Don’t mix the past with the present. Old wounds should be lessons, not weapons brought out during arguments. 7. Feel comfortable being together even without doing anything. If you can just sit quietly without feeling awkward, it means your hearts are deeply connected. 8. Don’t tease about what the other person feels insecure about. Some joking words can leave lasting scars. 9. Say thank you for the little things, like “Thanks for listening to me rent.” It helps keep the good feelings alive. 10. Be willing to say “It was my fault” when it’s true. Love lasts through understanding, not through winning. #JoongArchen #จุงอาเชน // That's really good advicesshow more

June 4th, 1994 our lives forever changed. We said,... “I do!”. With those two words, we said, yes, to all the highs, the lows, and everything in between. God has blessed us with four absolutely amazing children who are now amazing adults, with their own best friends/significant others (that they’re doing life with), we have three incredible grandsons, and a beautiful granddaughter on the way. We’ve lived where we both grew up (on the East Coast), and have now been out here in San Diego for just over 11 years. We’ve gotten jobs (and lost jobs), we’ve had more times than we can count where we couldn’t make ends meet, even though both you and I were working two, and sometimes three jobs at a time, and we’ve been blessed in ways that we could’ve never dreamed of. We’ve watched both my parents pass on, and are now dealing with the overwhelmingly difficult challenge of seeing your parents struggle with their own health in ways that no one should have to go through. Through it all (even in the midst of the chaos), we’ve been blessed to be by each other‘s sides! I thank God for you every day, Jillian! I love our adventures together (the big ones where we fly to somewhere we’ve never been before, and the little ones where we hop in the car with no agenda, and just drive). I love when we find ourselves in deeper conversation, laughter, and tears of joy then ever expected, and in the moments of silence, where no words are even spoken, but when we’re together, just being where our feet are. As the world (as we know it), keeps getting crazier and crazier, let’s continue to keep Christ in the center of all we do, keep leaning on and lifting each other up when it’s needed, and keep living the lives that we have been so incredibly blessed to live together. I love you with all my heart Jillian. Happy 32nd (heading into our 33rd year), Anniversary.show more

💔 Dying for Food — The Truth They Want... to Hide😱 Watch the video to see what we live through every single day… After the army besieged us and cut off food and water for two whole years, we had no choice but to go to what’s called the “American aid point” — but in reality, it’s the point of death plz donate: ( Every day, we go looking for a bag of flour or a can of food… And every day, some of us return, but many come back carried on shoulders… martyrs. 🕊️ The American and Israeli armies shoot at us from every direction, without mercy. Dozens of people are killed every day, just because they want to feed their children. And with every massacre… the internet is cut off, so the truth doesn’t reach the world. But we will not stay silent. Imagine the price of a bag of flour reaching £700… 🍞💸 Please donate here: ( Imagine your child crying from hunger, saying, “Daddy, I’m hungry”… and you have nothing to feed them. At that moment, you don’t think — you just go, even if you know you may not come back. We’re not asking for the impossible… just help us by donating and sharing this truth.

President Donald J. Trump, I have soooooo much love,... respect, and gratitude for you and your family, but it will be a cold day in hell before I vote for John Cornyn again. I have sucked it up and voted for him too many times for the "Republic party", but that piece of shit traitor certified the 2020 fraudulent election. John Cornyn certifying the 2020 fraudulent election ALONE is why someone could shoot me in the head, throw me in jail AGAIN, I WILL NOT VOTE FOR JOHN CORNYN EVER AGAIN!!!! Mr President you could look me in the eye and say Micki I need you to vote for John Cornyn and I would tell you HELL TO THE NO NO NO! I will ALWAYS do what I feel is best for the GREAT STATE of TEXAS and our UNITED STATES REPUBLIC and that will NEVER be JOHN CORNYN. John Cornyn can take my double middle finger military salute and shove it straight up his ass. God himself could tell me he needs me to vote for John Cornyn and I would tell God I WOULD RATHER BURN IN HELL THAN VOTE FOR THAT TRAITOR JOHN CORNYN! I have talked to many of my fellow TEXAS J6ERS and we all love you and respect you, and are grateful for you, but we will not vote for John Cornyn and we support Ken Paxton. I LOVE YOU SOOOO MUCH SIR, but if you endorse John Cornyn us Texas J6ers will be very disappointed. WE FINALLY HAVE A MAN WE TRUST IN THIS RACE. A REAL CHOICE! WE WON'T VOTE FOR JOHN CORNYN! Lots of us J6ERS are from TEXAS, and, in part, we blame JOHN CORNYN FOR THE HELL WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH. Every Texas J6ER I know supports KEN PAXTON for SENATE. I WILL DO EVERYTHING IN MY POWER TO MAKE DAMN SURE TEXAS KNOWS THAT JOHN CORNYN CERTIFIED THE 2020 FRAUDULENT ELECTION. I WILL GET WITH MY OTHER TEXAS J6ERS, THAT SUPPORT KEN PAXTON, AND WILL NOT VOTE FOR JOHN CORNYN, TO SEE IF THEY WILL JOIN ME IN MAKING DAMN CERTAIN TEXAS KNOWS THAT JOHN CORNYN WAS PART OF WHY WE WERE POLITICAL PRISONERS! No I don't have the power you do President Trump, but I will do what I feel is best for the GREAT STATE of TEXAS and the UNITED STATES REPUBLIC. JOHN CORNYN HAS BETRAYED AND FAILED THE GREAT STATE OF TEXAS AND THE UNITED STATES REPUBLIC FOR FAR TOO MANY YEARS!!!! WE WANT HIM OUT OF OUR SENATE! HE IS A TRAITOR AND WE SUPPORT KEN PAXTON.

💔🥺I received a call very early this morning, to... say that my uncle's house was targeted by tanks and my nephew was painfully injured in his side. We dread these moments, my friends, when you see that a family member is calling and you have to worry what will be on the other side.. I have just received word that his injuries are minor, and hopefully, he will be released from the hospital tomorrow. After trying to process this terrible news this morning, I also received word that our dear friend Aboud has been hospitalised again, due to very poor health. I cannot describe how I am feeling today, my friends. It would mean a lot if you could pray for my nephew and for Aboud to recover, if you'd like to. Things here are quickly deteriorating, and the aggression toward us is escalating very quickly. I do not know how long we will have. I did not know what to do myself, so I did what was familiar, and my cousin and I cooked a rice meal for the camp to make the people there very happy. We will not stop this work until they force us, my dear friends. Please stand by us, in any way you possibly can. I am just a man, pleading with the world as our homeland is crashing down on top of us. I do not want to be another number, I do not want my children to suffer this terror. Please be there for us, my friends, you are wonderful and you give me hope that the world is better.. 🫂 Our Cruelty Free Kitchen 🫂🙏🇵🇸 Our Water Project 💧🙏 My Family Survival Fund + Looking after the Cats 🐾🐈🥺🫂 My PayPal 🙏🇵🇸🥺🫂🚨🆘️ 🐾🐈show more

Guess who just turned 5? :) Tom has been... with me for the past five years. This means he has survived with me two devastating Israeli wars on Gaza in 2021, the current one (so far, of course), and many other—less devastating—escalations and assaults. Since October 2023, he has moved with me between three shelters. There have been many days and weeks when I felt I was in a dilemma since I couldn’t find anything to feed him, especially during the first months of Israel’s genocide in Gaza. I shared with him my portion of the bread we managed to find and saved him some clean water when we used to count the sips of water we could have each day. The once unsociable cat, who hated strangers, was unable to understand why he was suddenly snatched from his calm home and taken to a shelter with around 70 strangers, including children, whose noise and energy left him anxious and paranoid all the time. The once-spoiled cat, who didn’t settle for less than chicken breast and fancy wet and dry cat food and used to turn his back to me whenever I tried to feed him less fancy food, had to eat bread wetted with water and white rice leftovers when he starved and realized this wasn’t another attempt from me to make him eat what I wanted. Despite all of this, I can’t help but feel ashamed to say that Tom was so privileged compared to the hundreds of Palestinians, especially children and elderly people, who either starved to death or died due to acute malnutrition and severe vitamin and iron deficiencies caused by Israel’s systematic starvation of the population in Gaza. I feel ashamed of myself when I give Tom half of my loaf of bread and then go to work to document another case where a mother helplessly watched her child starve to death, not because she didn’t have the money to buy him food, but because there was literally no food to buy as Israel imposed a deadly blockade on northern Gaza to force the population to the south. What I’m not ashamed to admit, however, is that I now eat the same food Tom once rejected for being “poor quality.” Before the war, I’ve never bought canned luncheon meat for him, knowing how harmful it could be for cats. But for the past year, that same canned food, part of international aid, which most of the time is low quality food and barely edible, has sustained us both. These days, Tom and I share the same can of luncheon meat. But after all, I’m proud of Tom now more than ever, the spoiled cat who has transformed from a loner into a social butterfly, now making friends with all the stray cats around the shelter :) I can’t wait for the day I’ll put him in his box for the last time and head north… HOMEshow more
